Reviews From Guests

This quite clean room is at a convenient location near to subway station, stores and restaurants. Almost everyting needed is within walking distance. I stayed here for a week, visited many attracted places in an around the city, and had a cozy comfy bed to rest on at the end of the day.

This place was perfect. A very good size especially for the price and in Manhattan. Surprisingly quiet. Easy walk to the subway stops. Freda was awesome too. Very kind and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Great room in Chinatown close to subway :) and great host a little bit noisy (earing cap necessarry for a good sleep) alive district early in the morning and late in the evening, but we're not in NYC for sleeping :)

A friend and I stayed at Freda's place for 4 nights. The apartment is small and cozy, with a unique charm to it. The room itself was great - big, with a VERY comfortable bed (the memory foam mattress is amazing), an AC unit, a nightstand with power next to the bed, and hangers on the door for our towels and jackets. We appreciated that Freda provided towels for us.
We especially loved the location - in the heart of Chinatown and so close to many great neighborhoods and restaurants. The closest subway stations are about a 10 minute walk away. We walked to many places - Katz's Deli, Clinton St. Baking Company, NYU and the SoHo area, etc.
The bathroom was a bit dirty however. A big factor was that there was another guest staying in the other bedroom at the time - as others have mentioned, Freda was not staying in the apartment during our stay so the cleanliness of the bathroom wasn't entirely in her control. We appreciated that the bathroom was stocked with shampoo and soap.
Lastly, guests should know the room faces the street so there will be noise from people, cars, etc. But this is New York City after all so it's expected.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Freda was kind to check in on our second day to make sure everything was well. The amazingly comfortable bed and the coziness of the room made this a great stay for us.

When we landed from the airport, Freda was texting us and giving us directions. Once we arrived, we had to find the key in a small lockbox outside of the apartment, because Freda was not at home, we figure it out and finally we got into the apartment. The place was clean and very spacious. The neighborhood was ok, but there were people at any time, so it was safe to walk even at night.
The only thing is that is a 3 story building without elevator and if you are carrying a lot of stuff it might be tough to bring it up & down. We only saw Freda the first day since we were out almost every time.

Freda was not living at the apartment during my stay but came back shortly bevor I left. She organized it well that I could find my way to her apartment and answered all my questions immediatly. She is very friendly. Thank you, Freda!

I had a great stay at Freda's place. The room is exactly the same as picture. Clean, bright and spacious. The room is decorated nicely. Everything was working well in the room. The memory foam mattress and pillows were very comfortable. There was a slight problem getting the keys but everything was okay. The apartment is on level 4, which means you will need to climb 3 flights of stairs. The staircase is quite narrow which make it hard for me to carry my luggages. The location of this apartment is near Grant St. subway which was very convenient. If you like to walk, you would be able to walk to Lower East Side and Soho area. Canal Station is also nearby but further than Grant St. subway. I am a single female traveler and I feel quite safe around the apartment location. Manhattan bridge is also a stone throw away! I walked to Manhattan bridge in less than 6 mins and did a scroll on the bridge to the other side of the island. You would be able to get great views of Brooklyn bridge as well. Wifi connection was good. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.

Rooms are clean and organized. The bedroom was bright, tidy, spacious, and the memory foam mattress was enjoyable to sleep on. The heater made it very cozy during the cold winter night.
Place is very close to a lot of great food locations as well as having close access to subway stations for easy traveling. The Tenement Museum just a few blocks down was also a treat to visit.
Freda was an accommodating host who had a lot of great places to recommend.
Great location and room.
